Whether we "support" Log4j version `2.17.0` depends on how you define 
"support," so let’s break it down:

- We **no longer** maintain the `2.17.x` minor version. Only the latest release 
within the `2.x` series receives updates — including security fixes. If a 
vulnerability is discovered, you'll need to upgrade to the latest `2.x` version 
or patch `2.17.x` yourself.

- We do **not** accept bug reports for `2.17.x`. All issues must be 
reproducible in the latest available version.

- We **do** accept security vulnerability reports affecting `2.17.x`, and we 
will publish a security advisory if needed. However, as noted above, we will 
not release new patches for the `2.17.x` line.

- [**Community 
support**](https://logging.apache.org/support.html#discussions-user) remains 
**available** on a best-effort basis. We even occasionally answer questions 
about Log4j 1.x — if someone remembers how it worked!

- For guaranteed support with SLAs, some companies offer [**commercial 
support**](https://logging.apache.org/support.html#commercial) for Log4j.

That’s an excellent answer — thank you!
Just to add for completeness: version 2.17.0 was never affected by 
CVE-2021-44832. This was confirmed in a later review (see 
apache/logging-site#6).

Please refer to the security page:
https://logging.apache.org/security.html

Also, mvnrepository.com provides links to most security vulnerabilities from 
affected artifacts. For example, on log4j-core, it doesn't show any 
vulnerabilities on versions after 2.17.0
https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.logging.log4j/log4j-core
